About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when most gas stations are empty and quiet, Citgo’s neon sign flickered ominously. A delivery driver noticed first—an eerie green glow that seemed to pulse in rhythm with the hum of the pumps. Curious, he approached the counter, only to see a cat lazily stretching on top of it, its eyes reflecting the same eerie green light. ‘Guess someone forgot to turn off their headlights,’ chuckled a regular, sipping coffee from his thermos. The delivery driver shook his head and smiled, realizing it was just another morning at Citgo.

2. One morning, a regular noticed something odd in Citgo’s parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper, left overnight. Nobody claimed it. Curious, he opened it and found inside a bag of freshly baked donuts. A note read: ‘Thanks for always filling our tank!’ Turns out, a neighbor had been secretly rewarding him for being such a good customer.

3. At midnight, when the streets were silent, a delivery driver pulled up to Citgo for a quick fill-up. The pump clicked on, but so did an old radio inside the station—playing a song no one remembered hearing before. As he filled his tank, the driver noticed an elderly gentleman slowly approaching from behind the counter. ‘That’s strange,’ he thought, ‘I’ve never seen him here before.’ The man smiled and said softly, ‘Just wanted to hear that song again too.’ They both laughed, realizing it was the same tune neither recognized, yet somehow familiar. That night, Citgo became more than just a gas station—it became a place where strangers shared music and stories.

4. At dusk, while neighbors gathered for their daily walk, one of them stopped abruptly near Citgo. The streetlight reflected eerily off the station's pumps. Suddenly, a delivery driver emerged from the shadows and asked with a straight face, ‘Did you guys see that? I thought my truck was reflecting!’ Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just another evening at Citgo—where reality meets reflection.
